[QUOTE="BGonaSTICK, post: 115991, member: 176912"] If you suspect the card, try using just the FTA channels for a day or two - BBC channels are all FTA. You don't even need the card in the box. They can be damaged if they're pushed and pulled too many times. Let us know how you get on. If I had to make a guess, I'd say suspect tuner. S/H box around £40 on eBay, but you'll have to phone Sly to re-pair the card to the new box if you have a premium subscription I believe. If you subscribe to Sly and threaten to cancel, they should offer to sell you a S/H box for £65 IIRC. Don't get stitched by them for a £65 service call-out only to tell you your box is knackerd! :) [/QUOTE]
